Far more than just a place to eat, this location is a high-energy, fan-centric powerhouse that lives up to its 2011 ESPN title as the “#1 Sports Bar in North America.”

Stepping inside, you are immediately greeted by the electric atmosphere required for true game day communion. With high-definition TVs visible from nearly every seat and a spacious, newly renovated interior, this spot is meticulously designed to host both massive crowds and intimate gatherings.

The Menu: Icons & Innovations The main attraction, of course, is the legendary Famous Crabfries®. These crinkle-cut fries, dusted with a proprietary blend of crab seasoning and served with a side of creamy white cheese sauce, are a culinary institution that defines the Philly sports experience. Beyond the Crabfries, the menu boasts seafood house classics and bar fare elevated to signature status, including the world-famous Lobster Cheesesteak and an array of Pete-zzas and robust burgers (don’t miss the Ultimate Tailgate Burger topped with a jumbo lump crab cake!).

The Bar: A True Craft Connection While Chickie’s & Pete’s is known for high-volume service, the bar program stands out with an impressive, rotating selection of local New Jersey craft beers on tap, confirming its status as a destination for serious beer drinkers. They also offer a full list of cocktails, wine, and domestic favorites, ensuring every fan has their perfect game-time pairing.

A History Steeped in Philly Pride The Chickie’s & Pete’s story began in 1977 when Peter and Henrietta “Chickie” Ciarrocchi purchased a neighborhood taproom in Northeast Philadelphia. Their son, Pete Jr., perfected the Crabfries recipe in 1979, catapulting the brand into local fame before it became a concession staple at Veterans Stadium in 1998. The Egg Harbor location, opened in 2007, brought this beloved tradition to the heart of South Jersey, giving Atlantic County a premier spot to experience food, family, and football.
